Operation of the Heater
NOTE: It is normal when the heaters are turned on for the first time or when they are turned on
after having not been used for a long period of time, they may emit some smell and fumes. This will
disappear when the heater has been on a short while.
Convector Heater with Thermostat
Choose a suitable location for the heater, taking into account the safety instructions above.
•
Insert the plug of the heater into a suitable socket.
•
Turn the thermostat knob fully in a clockwise direction to the maximum setting.
•
Turn on the heating elements by means of the rocker switches on the side panel (1).
•
When the heating elements are on the switches will illuminate. For maximum heat output both
switches should be on.
•
When the desired room temperature has been reached, the thermostat knob should be turned
slowly anti-clockwise until the thermostat is heard to click off and the lights on the element
switches are seen to go out. After this the heater will keep the air temperature in the room at
the set temperature by switching on and off automatically (3).
•
This model also incorporates an internal fan, which can be switched on independently of the
heating elements (2).
Fan Operation: -This is operated by means of the switch with the fan symbol alongside it. The fan will
only operate with the thermostat in the “on” position and can be used when the heating elements
are “on” to blow warm air into the room. In warm conditions the fan can be used with the heating
elements “off” to blow cool air into the room
.
This model is also fitted with a 24hr timer which has 96 segments around its circumference, each
segment being equivalent to 15 minutes of time. With the aid of this timer it is possible to pre-set
the time and duration of the period(s) that it is desired the heater will operate, in any 24hr period.
Timer Operation
The centre of the timer has a 3-position slide switch.
In the central position (denoted by the clock symbol) the timer will switch the heater on and off at
times set by the segments, (see setting the timer below).
The position denoted by the “I”, is a timer override position. The timer will continue to run but
power will be fed continuously to the heater. This enables the heater to be on all the time if
required.
In the position denoted by the “O”, the timer continues to run but no power is fed to the heater.
